Story Time 285 – Bring back the Matador BBQ Cup
About this episode
The episode discusses the significance of batting on all five days of a Test and reflects on the Matador BBQ Cup in Australian cricket history.
It’s Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, Geoff and Adam ask if batting on all five days of a Test really is the feat we build it up to be? We look at Mali’s brief and unusual international frolic before reflecting on the second glory period of Australian one-day cricket - the mighty Matador Cup.
